Completing the upgrade

To complete the procedure of upgrading by moving volumes, you need to configure the Service Processor (SP), install new licenses, and set up AutoSupport. You might also need to set up Storage Encryption and configure the FC or NCA ports.

Steps

Configure the SP on the new nodes as needed by using the system service-processor network modify command.

Install new licenses on the new nodes as needed by using the system license add command.

Set up AutoSupport on the new nodes by using the system node autosupport modify command.

From each new node, send a post-upgrade AutoSupport message to technical support: system node autosupport invoke -node node_name -type all -message "node_name successfully upgraded from platform_old to platform_new"

If the new nodes have Storage Encryption enabled, launch the key management setup wizard to configure Storage Encryption by using the security key-manager setup command.

If the new nodes have FC ports (onboard or on FC adapters), onboard CNA ports, or a CNA card, configure the FC or CNA ports, enter the following command from the storage system prompt: system node hardware unified-connect modify -node node-name -adapter adapter-name -mode {fc|cna} -type {target|initiator}
